Description
Angels Gate Lighthouse San Pedro CA,
The sun was beginning to go down on the Pacific Ocean as we were cruising out of San Pedro, California. This beautiful lighthouse is currently under construction. What is this lighthouse? The historical Angels Gate Lighthouse located as you are leaving out of San Pedro, CA via boat. This can also be considered a jetty.
Angels Gate Lighthouse has marked the entrance to the port since 1913. The breakwater is 9,250 feet long and contains nearly three million tons of rock. And the rock was brought over from Santa Catalina Island.
Angel’s Gate was built to withstand rough seas, the framework is structural steel, with steel plates to the second floor. The lighthouse was automated in 1973, thus eliminating the need for keepers. Emmy Vickers,
